I chose Dr. Bailey based on Her many years of experience, as well as Her advanced education. The thing that immediately helped me see Her as the right "match," however, was Her gentle way of working with me during my time of Crisis. I needed to deal with a lot of very difficult truths- and She was the absolute right person to explore them with. And because of that, I am now working with Her on a MUCH Brighter path forward. I could not possibly recommend Her more highly.

Dr. Bailey is simply the best! I stay with this app because of her! She listens, she understands, she isn’t judgmental, she has excellent advice, she truly cares, and follows ups with you. She communicates well and always in a timely manner. Not only does she listen well, understand, and give advice, but she also gives you exercises to try or “homework” when needed, and follows up, to help you or give you that extra push if needed. She has been so helpful in her approach with me!!

Written on Sep 08, 2021 after therapy with Jannice for 1 year and 11 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, career difficulties, and coaching

Dr Bailey is the most helpful and professional yet personable therapist I’ve ever worked with. She has helped immensely in just a few sessions! I couldn’t be happier with her and her tools and advice

Written on Sep 03, 2021 after therapy with Jannice for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, grief, and eating disorders

I have been meeting with Dr. Bailey weekly since March 2020 and largely credit her (although she would say it was me) for getting me through major difficult life events from the past year and and finally really facing past violent trauma. She has helped me feel and do things that a year ago I could not imagine, but at my pace. I thought I had a lot figured out, but she has helped me to realizations that have transformed my whole perspective on a lot and I’m doing much better because of it. I don’t know if she adjusts style for each person, but with me she attunes to whatever I need in the moment — listening, empathy, just the right question (that others just haven’t thought of or said that way to me), and then when I ask or need— shifting to more directness when helpful. (This I feel is so rare- to feel that a therapist is not just being passive or using kid gloves, but knows what is needed to hear/if I’m ready to hear it. She makes me feel I am in control of where we go without me be out front on my own.) She has really exceptional memory also for when things from months ago relate or contrast to present day. That’s extremely important and I have learned so much about myself because of that. I feel I have needed to find and talk to her for a long time and am very grateful.

Oh. And she helped me navigate figuring out that I have ADHD! (Not diagnosing but still completely able to understand what is going on and what it’s like and being able to help get support/troubleshoot. Has made the process less stressful and scary because I don’t feel I need to ask around and figure things out as I go, Dr. Bailey is with me.)

This may sound sappy but I genuinely feel that Dr. Bailey could, if she wanted, be the example when people are learning to be therapists and anyone would benefit learning from her. Thank you, Dr. Bailey, I hope all the help that you give comes back to you many times over.

Dr. Bailey is very attentive and will help with any situation you may be dealing with. She is a huge factor in my mental recovery and overall understanding of myself. I would recommend her to anyone looking for help. She's really the best at what she does.

I have been counseling with Dr. Bailey for at least 6 months and over Covid-19 pandemic times. She has been supportive, understanding and insightful. She gently and directly asks me to consider questions about myself and relationships in order to help be more aware of and understand things that prevent me from being psychologically healthy and happy. I appreciate her perspective, enjoy her style and voice, which is warm and friendly and her patience with me. She would be a good friend.

Written on Sep 11, 2020 after therapy with Jannice for 6 months on issues concerning depression, grief, and anger management

This was my last session with Dr. Bailey because my institution is no longer using BetterHelp and I am so sad that I will no longer be able to talk to her. I have spoken to her for the past 10 months, oftentimes weekly, sometimes bi-monthly. Each time she has been such a huge influence on my day to day.

I started my sessions last year feeling so discouraged about my career training that I felt like I wasn't going to make it to the next step. Dr. Bailey continuously encouraged me and saw me more for the person I am, rather than the quality of my grades. She made me realize my true worth, outside of academics, and the busy hustle/bustle that is life. Through talking to her, I grew my confidence and appreciation for my true self. In the end, this confidence is what drives me to not give up on myself and continue working hard to achieve my goals.

I also enjoyed that Dr. Bailey gave me concrete plans to get to my next step. In the beginning, I was wary to change my habits but because I was not moving forward I began to listen to Dr. Bailey's recommendations. From things like cheering myself on in front of the mirror, to taking handwritten notes during lecture so I am attentive, to setting up an hourly agenda to ensure that I finish the tasks that I need to do -- she has taught me skills that I never got around to do on my own. These skills have helped immensely with work and personal life. I highly recommend Dr. Bailey as a therapist.

Dr. Bailey, you are an amazing therapist and I will miss you!

Dr. Bailey has helped me out throughout the past year through some difficult life changes and transitions. I left a company I loved, got a new job, lost said job, and moved all within the past few months. Now, with quarantine, she's helping me develop a routine and better self-care habits to use this time to focus on me and to avoid going stir crazy!

I've recently started using BetterHelp and Dr. Bailey is the counselor who is helping me. In the past, I've gone to two different in-person therapists, and haven't received as much advice and compassion as Dr. Bailey has provided me. She talks to me everyday, usually twice a day, and checks up on me if I haven't responded in a while. I have yet to schedule any video sessions with her, but she provides me with different worksheets and articles to read and give my feedback. I would definitely recommend Dr. Bailey, and I'm excited to continue talking with her and take control over some of the things I'm working through.
